Daily Inspection for All Lift Trucks


 
Brakes - Test your brakes. They should depress smoothly and should not require excessive force to operate. When pressing the brakes, the pedal should not sink under continued pressure. When you drive your lift truck, the brakes should not grab or cause the truck to swerve. Brakes that make a grinding or screeching noise need immediate attention. 

Also, don't forget to check your parking brake.
